Legislative Session
The first half of the 2026 legislative session was busy, with over 1,100 active
bills in total and 205 being tracked by the New Hampshire Hospital Association
(NHHA), in addition to a number of retained bills from the 2025 session.
Crossover – the deadline for bills to be transferred to the opposite body of the
legislature – occurred on Thursday, March 26, 2026. The NHHA is happy to
report that several positive bills have crossed over, while others will require
more work to amend or vote down.
The NHHA appreciates the efforts that members have put toward advocacy
and relationship-building with their local legislators during this session,
including hosting legislative breakfasts and other opportunities to interface with
state leaders.
